A bit more done, got a pretty big buildup in here now with a pretty good crescendo section to go with it near the end so far. Introduced a few new instruments as well, and did some heavy tweaking on some of the existing ones.
Would like to note that Fruity Limiter is 1000% more useful than a compressor+Parametric EQ combo for mastering, holy crap even with the hard side-chaining in this song it doesn't peak anywhere o.o

I like this, nice hard bass, and very industrialy trancy!...
But I dislike fruity limiter for a number of reasons, ESPECIALLY when side-chaining lol. It just does not compress like a compressor, because it isn't a compressor, it is a simple limiter. Combine Maximus, Fruity Limiter, and Soundgoodizer Finalizing compressor, NEVER use an equalizer in the master channel, most common downfall of progressing artists.
Edit the bands in the compressors and make the sounds blend in with one another. Or buy T-Racks and have a full armory of mastering in one plugin ;) I use one or the other method for however my mood is on that day that I produce lol
7/10

anyways in response to this,
Thanks for the feedback on the mastering, still something I'm getting the hang of but I've been trying to get it down to the point of as much as a blank master effects layer without peaking.
When I use an EQ in the master channel it's usually for global tuning and for adjusting the master volume before a compressor or w/e comes next, the tweaks on that are usually minor ones, I leave the drastic frequency changes to their own channel

Ahh I see, ok that sounds logical. I never use EQ in master channel anymore, but I think that is because I am just attuned to spending a couple of hours tuning each channel in the mixer, then using the T-Racks compression equalizer in master..
On a side note, I should have gave you a better rating. I am just used to my production home on Image-Line Collab. I rate very fierce... After 12 years in Music Production, 8 in FL Studio, hearing a lot of beginners say they think they can get signed (or call themselves pro), or those that think the DAW is the reason why they suck gets to me after a long hard day and I just take that logic with me as a habit. After I rate they usually go on about how I didn't listen to the whole thing, blahh.. lol
I will take a listen to the final, in the mean time, go listen to some of my hobbyist muzik (the stuff I make with free time and VST's lol.. nothing compares to real synthesis.) ^_^
